The doctors are all still amazed that I am infact still pregnant, they honestly thought that after my waters breaking my baby would be here within 24 hours, but to still be there 3 days later is awesome. My spirits were staring to get a bit higher today. I made friends with a lady in the same room as me, who had already been in hospital for 7 weeks.
By mid afternoon, the pains had started. I had mild back pain along with tightenings and just generally uncomfortable. I was now experiencing pre-labour, The midwife kept checking on me as I think she fully expected me to progress into full labour very quickly. It was the start of a VERY long 10 days.... as soon as the real pains started to get more frequent I told my midwife, she came in and could feel mild contractions. Within 20 mins or so, they stopped. At this stage I wasn't sure what was really happening and tried my best to stay calm and positive.
Okay - nice so far, but Seriously - you are killing me with such tiny bits each time!!!! It's worse than an episode of days of our lives - (how they leave you in suspense)!!
I am really interested, but I'm the kinda person who might just sneak a look at the end of the book!!!
Keep going Sally, it's great to hear another premmie baby story, guess one day soon we will have to write ours
Though with a 'newborn' in the house, time is a precious commondity, usually spent sleeping, eating or washing baby clothes
